JUDGE    MEE    PASSES    AWAY. 


The    Weil-Known   Attorney   Expires 
After  a  Long  Illness. 

The  death  is  recorded  yesterday  of  Judge 
James  Mee,  the  well-known  attorney,  who 
expired  at  his  residence  on  Broadway 
after  an  illness  of  some  months'  duration. 
The  deceased  came  to  California  in  the 
early  fifties  and  became  engaged  in  min- 
ing, the  gold  excitement  being  then  at  Us 
height.  Mr.  Mee  al^occupied  himself  in 
agricultural  pursuit*  with  considerable 
success. 

In  1862  he  settled  in  San  Francisco  and 
addressed  himself  to  the  study  and  prac- 
tice ol  the  Inw,  toward  which  his  early 
tastes  inclined  him.  He  continued  to 
practice  law  until  a  few  years  ago,  when 
failing  health  drove  him  to  retire  from 
active  business. 

Mr.  Mee  was  a  thorough  man  of  affairs, 
shrewd,  bright  and  rich  in  experiences  of 
value.  He  had  a  wide  circle  of  friends, 
and  his  intimates  held  his  opinion  ia  high 
esteem.  He  was  a  native  of  Ireland,  aged 
65  years. 

The  funeral  will  take  place  to-morrow  at 
9  A.  M.  from  St.  Bridget's  Church,  corner 
Van  Ness  averme  r>nrt  Broadwaj'.
